Benefits of technology

[0012]The above and other objects and advantages are attained in accordance with the present invention by providing a pouch having magnets affixed to the interior lining of the pouch's upper and lower panels. Due to the magnetic polarity of each magnet being equally directed, mating profile pouches can be attached to another mating profile pouch through the magnetic pull

Abstract

A zipper pouch—that can be of any size—featuring magnets that are embedded within the interior lining of the pouch. The polarity direction of each magnet is equal on the pouch, thereby facilitating the attachment of mating profile pouches. This synthesized magnetic polarity enables multiple connection configurations of mating profile pouches: the attachment of one mating profile pouch directly on top of another mating profile pouch, and the attachment of a mating profile pouch's upper panel to the lower panel of another mating pouch. The magnets are positioned to each upper and lower panel and equal in number and positioning per pouch; however, the total number of magnets per pouch can vary, depending upon the scale and weight capacity requirements of the pouch. The illustration shows the established mirror positioning of the magnets along the top and lower panels of the pouch. The upper magnets are adhered to and placed in-between the pouch's back interior lining and modesty fabric panel. The lower magnets are adhered to and placed in-between the pouch's lower front panel and modesty fabric panel. Each modesty fabric panel conceals the magnet from the pouch's interior view.
